Tibalt's done his best. He really has. But, when a group of clerics request his party's help on a mission that will take them to the most dangerous enchanted forest on the continent, he's not sure his best is going to be enough. He's got a million and one problems with religion, and this is only going to make things worse. Especially when a god turns up, and things only get more complicated from there. What does this god want, and why are his sights set on Tibalt?

Tibalt is in for it. He has all of his friends gathered at the tower, and he is stressed. He is stressed beyond measure. He's a bit of a homebody, and he doesn't like company, but Teacher wants to play, and he's going to let it.

Tibalt needs to take an exam. This seems easy, but it's more difficult than he could have ever imagined. Not because the questions are hard, no. But, because he has to deal with people. People are not his strong suit, and he has multiples of them to charm to earn his place as a master artificer. Can he pull it off?

Tibalt has finally emerged from his tower. It was a long winter, and he's looking forward to enjoying the spring and all that entails. But, he's run into a small problem. The court mage that drowned out the entire country with torrential rain that went on for a solid month has asked him to prove zir innocence when zir accused of attacking another city on the coast. Tibalt doesn't think his command of magic is up to the task, but he will go nonetheless, because he just can't turn his back on a lost soul. Will Tibalt prove Innes's innocence, or will he put his entire party in jail?

A nameless, lonely protagonist from our world trades their names for the chance to enter a new world with magic, but the twist is this: they have to start out locked in a tower with the only escape being undoing a cosmic enchantment. So, naturally, instead of getting out, they spend a full year becoming a savant of artificing. The problem when they get out? This is a world where there are no artificer savants. What mayhem will greet them when they make their way out into the wide world awaiting them?
